sssd performance on large domains
by zfnoctis＠gmail.com 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

Hi, I'm wondering if there are any plans to improve sssd performance on large active directory domains (100k+ users, 40k+ groups), or if there are settings I am not aware of that can greatly improve performance, specifically for workstation use cases. Currently if I do not set "ignore_group_members = True" in sssd.conf, logins can take upwards of 6 minutes and "sssd_be" will max the CPU for up to 20 minutes after logon, which makes it a non-starter. The reason I want to allow group members to be seen is that I want certain domain groups to be able to perform elevated actions using polkit. If I ignore group members, polkit reports that the group is empty and so no one can elevate in the graphical environment. Ultimately this means that Linux workstations are at a severe disadvantage since they cannot be bound to the domain and have the normal set of access features users and IT expect from macOS or Windows. Distributions used: Ubuntu 16.04 (sssd 1.13.4-1ubuntu1.1), Ubuntu 16.10 (sssd 1.13.4-3) and Fedora 24 (sssd-1.13.4-3.fc24). All exhibit the same problems. I've also tried "ldap_group_nesting_level = 1" without seeing any noticeable improvement with respect to performance. Putting the database on /tmp isn't viable as these are workstations that will reboot semi-frequently, and I don't believe this is an I/O bound performance issue anyways. Thanks for your time.

ID Views for IPA ID Views for AD users inconsistent resolution
by Louis Abel 01 Aug '21

01 Aug '21

I didn't get a response in #sssd, so I figured I'll try here at the mail list. # rpm -q sssd ipa-server sssd-1.16.0-19.el7_5.5.x86_64 ipa-server-4.5.4-10.el7_5.3.x86_64 I've been scratching my head trying to resolve this particular issue. I'm having issues with AD users where when they login, they'll get the UID/GID assigned in the ID views correctly, but only some of the time. Other times, they won't get the id view assigned to them. This is all done in the default trust view. What makes this issue even more interesting is that out of my 6 domain controllers, sometimes it'll be one server out of the six that does it, sometimes it's two. But it's never the same ones, so it's difficult to track the particular issue down. What's even more interesting is this is not occurring with some users (like my own). I have yet to see it occur with my account or even the rest of my team's accounts. One of the things I tried to do is delete the ID views of the offending users and recreate them to no avail. I put SSSD into debug mode on the IPA servers and tried to get some relevant logs and such to try and figure this out. Below is my SSSD configuration, ldb info, and debug logs (removing private information where possible). I'm trying to determine if this is either a bug within SSSD or if this is a misconfiguration on my part. $ ldbsearch -H cache_ipa.example.com.ldb name=user.name(a)ad.example.com originalADuidNumber uidNumber originalADgidNumber gidNumber asq: Unable to register control with rootdse! # record 1 dn: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb originalADuidNumber: 55616902 originalADgidNumber: 55616902 uidNumber: 55616902 gidNumber: 55616902 $ ipa idoverrideuser-show "Default Trust View" user.name(a)ad.example.com Anchor to override: user.name(a)ad.example.com UID: 40001 GID: 40001 Home directory: /home/user.name Login shell: /bin/bash $ ldbsearch -H timestamps_ipa.example.com.ldb | less dn: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb objectCategory: user originalModifyTimestamp: 20180823172515.0Z entryUSN: 92632390 initgrExpireTimestamp: 1535133621 lastUpdate: 1535128235 dataExpireTimestamp: 1535133635 distinguishedName: name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb ## DEBUG LOGS (Fri Aug 24 16:30:12 2018) [sssd[be[ipa.example.com]]] [sysdb_set_entry_attr] (0x0200): Entry [name=user.name(a)ad.example.com,cn=users,cn=ad.example.com,cn=sysdb] has set [ts_cache] attrs.

Enumerate users from external group from AD trust
by Bolke de Bruin 29 Nov '19

29 Nov '19

Hello, I have sssd 1.13.00 working against FreeIPA 4.2 domain. This domain has a trust relationship with a active directory domain. One of the systems we are using requires to enumerate all users in groups by (unfortunate) design (Apache Ranger). This is done by using “getent group”. During this enumeration the full user list for a group that has a nested external member group* is not always returned so we thought to add “getent group mygroup” in order to get more details. Unfortunately this does not seem to work consistently: sometimes this gives information sometimes it does not: [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004: [root@master centos]# id bolke(a)ad.local UID=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local) GID=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local) groepen=1796201107(bolke(a)ad.local),1796200513(domain users@ad.local),1796201108(test@ad.local) [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004:bolke@ad.local <mailto:bolke@ad.local> If I clear the cache (sss_cache -E) the entry is gone again: [root@master centos]# getent group ad_users ad_users:*:1950000004: My question is how do I get sssd to enumerate *all users* in a group consistently?

SSSD strangeness
by simonc99＠hotmail.com 05 Nov '19

05 Nov '19

Hi All We've got SSSD 1.13.0 installed as part of a Centos 7.2.1511 installation. We've used realmd to join the host concerned to our 2008R2 AD system. This went really well, and consequently we've been using SSSD to provide login services and kerberos integration for our fairly large hadoop system. The authconfig that's implicitly run as part of realmd produces the following sssd.conf: [sssd] domains = <joined domain> config_file_version = 2 services = nss, pam [pam] debug_level = 0x0080 [nss] timeout = 20 force_timeout = 600 debug_level = 0x0080 [domain/<joined domain>] ad_domain = <joined domain> krb5_realm = <JOINED DOMAIN> realmd_tags = manages-system joined-with-samba cache_credentials = true id_provider = ad krb5_store_password_if_offline = True default_shell = /bin/bash ldap_id_mapping = True use_fully_qualified_names = False fallback_homedir = /home/%u@%d access_provider = simple simple_allow_groups = <AD group allowing logins> krb5_use_kdc_info = False entry_cache_timeout = 300 debug_level = 0x0080 ad_server = <active directory server> As I've said - this works really well. We did have some stability issues initially, but they've been fixed by defining the 'ad_server' rather than using autodiscovery. Logins work fine, kerberos TGTs are issued on login, and password changes are honoured correctly. However, in general day to day use, we have noticed a few anomalies, that we just can't track down. Firstly (this has happened a few times), a user will change their AD password (via a Windows PC). Subsequent logins - sometimes with specific client software - fail with pam_sss(sshd:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser= rhost=<remote PC name> user=<username> pam_sss(sshd:auth): received for user <username>: 17 (failure setting user credentials) So in this example, the person concerned has changed their AD password. Further attempts to access this system via SSH work fine. However, using SFTP doesn't work (the above is output into /var/log/secure). There are no local controls on sftp logins, and the user concerned was working fine (using both sftp and ssh) until they updated their password. There is no separate sftp daemon running, and it only affects one individual currently (but we have seen some very similar instances before) The second issue we have is around phantom groups in AD. Hadoop uses an id -Gn command to see group membership for authorisation. With some users - we've seen 6 currently - we see certain groups failing to be looked up: id -Gn <username> id: cannot find name for group ID xxxxyyyyy <group name> <group name> <group name> <group name> <etc...> The xxxxyyyyy indicates: xxxx = hashed realm name yyyyy = RID from group in AD We can't find any group with that number on the AD side! We can work around this by adding a local group (into /etc/group) for the GIDs affected. This means the id -Gn runs correctly, and the hadoop namenode can function correctly - but this is a workaround and we'd like to get to the bottom of the issue. Rather than flooding this post now with logfiles, just thought I'd see if this looked familiar to anyone. Happy to upload any logs, amend logging levels, etc. Many thanks Simon

Any way to convince realm join not to do authselect in RHEL8?
by Spike White 04 Jun '19

04 Jun '19

All, Basically here is the realm command we use to join the appropriate regional AD domain: realm join -v --automatic-id-mapping=no --computer-ou="OU=Servers,OU=UNIX,DC=$SUPPORTREGION,DC=COMPANY,DC=COM" --user-principal="host/`hostname --fqdn`@$JOINDOMAIN" $JOINDOMAIN As part of this, realm join internally runs the following command: * /usr/bin/sh -c /usr/bin/authselect select sssd with-mkhomedir --force && /usr/bin/systemctl enable oddjobd.service && /usr/bin/systemctl start oddjobd.service But that sets /etc/pam.d/password-auth and /etc/pam.d/system-auth to a sub-optimal PAM stack. I.e., not what we desire. For example, 99.9% of our users are in AD. So we want to run pam_sssd *before* pam_unix. We are very comfortable with testing and debugging PAM stacks. We have a stable, tested PAM stack that works great -- ever since RHEL7. Basically, after the 'realm join' above is done, we have to overwrite /etc/pam.d/{system-auth,password-auth,postlogin} with what we desire. If 'realm join' can't be convinced to not run authselect, we're ok with creating a custom/profile authselect profile with what we want. And then convince realm join to run: authselect select custom/profile Instead of the above authselect select sssd Prior to running 'realm join', I have to drop down a /etc/realmd.conf file so that the 'realm join' behaves as I want it to. Is there any option in realmd.conf to not run authselect or tailor the authselect command? Or may a flag on the 'realm discover' command line? I don't remember any of these problems with realm join on RHEL7. Maybe it was running authconfig inappropriately as well -- and I just never noticed, because I over-wrote with desired PAM stack?

Since my last upgrade (ubuntu 18.10 -> 19.04) to samba 4.10.0 and sssd 1.16.3 samba shares are not working anymore and I got the error message in /var/log/samba/log.smbd: [2019/05/20 12:09:23.022488, 0] ../../source3/auth/auth_util.c:1386(make_new_session_info_guest) create_local_token failed: NT_STATUS_NO_MEMORY [2019/05/20 12:09:23.022542, 0] ../../source3/smbd/server.c:2041(main) ERROR: failed to setup guest info. Newer samba versions require a running winbindd but I use SSSD instead of winbindd which was working before. The samba team says SSSD is not supported by samba and I should use winbindd. But I want to stay with SSSD. So what is the recommended SSSD and samba configuration to get samba shares working while using SSSD? Or is it not possible anymore to use only SSSD with samba shares without winbind? Thanks!

SSSD and Samba
by Dav Banks 03 Jun '19

03 Jun '19

Hi There, I was wondering if anyone has experience with using sssd for samba authentication. I’ve gotten sssd working for getent tools but when a user tries to access a share that they have permissions to via a group they get a permissions denied error. If I add the user directly to the ACL it works fine. I can post more info but was just wondering if this is a known problem or just something strange with me. ------------------------------- Dav Banks

SSSD 1.11.5 AD groups vanish
by Jim Burwell 31 May '19

31 May '19

Hi, I'm experiencing an issue with SSSD 1.11.5 running on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS. It's using the AD provider, pointing to AD servers with POSIX groups configured (ldap_id_mapping = False). The issue I'm experiencing is that all of a user's groups vanishes from "id" and "groups" after several hours (appears to be 8-12 hours), except for his/her login group. sss_cache -E doesn't fix it Restarting SSSD doesn't fix it. However, stopping SSSD, removing /var/lib/sss/db/*, and restarting SSSD does fix it. After manually removing the cache files in the DB dir, SSSD will then see all of a users groups until several hours pass, then, again, all but his login group will vanish until the files are removed and SSSD restarted again. Is this a known issue, perhaps a bug fixed in some future version? BTW, if you're wondering, the SSSD version I'm using is a backport of 1.11.5 found here in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~sssd/+archive/ubuntu/updates This is how I'm able to use the AD provider with Ubuntu 12. I know it's not supported, etc. I'm just looking for any insights or suggestions, or whether a known bug exists for this version that exhibits this "vanishing groups" behavior. TIA, - Jim

sssd renew TGT with ssh gssapi
by Winberg Adam 31 May '19

31 May '19

Ok, so this is an old subject. I know that SSSD can only renew kerberos tickets which it itself has generated which is part of the reason for KCM. But trying out RHEL8, with KCM disabled (because of some weird behaviour reported in a bugzilla ticket), I am affected by this much more than on RHEL7. On RHEL7, sssd manages to renew my kerberos ticket even if I login to the server with sshd GSSAPI and forwarded credentials ('GSSAPIDelegateCredentials yes'). I am not sure why this works on RHEL7 when it according to documentation should not. On RHEL7, the krb5_child.log clearly shows that SSSD renews my ticket: (Fri May 31 00:08:45 2019) [[sssd[krb5_child[62512]]]] [main] (0x0400): krb5_child started.

So, how does this work on RHEL7 and why does it not work on RHEL8? Thanks.

Hi. Some info: OS: Linux Mint 18 (Ubuntu 16.04) SSSD version: 1.13.4-1ubuntu1.13 (Downgraded from 1.13.4-1ubuntu1.14 to test is their new update broke something) AD is on Windows Server (not sure which version). Everything was working fine until this morning, I'm not aware if anything changed on the Windows server. Situation: If I try to login with an AD user: su myuser(a)domain.com I see this in log (/var/log/auth.log) pam_sss(su:auth): authentication success; logname= uid=1005 euid=0 tty=/dev/pts/2 ruser=myuser rhost= user=myuser(a)domain.com But the shell just hangs there for about 45 seconds and then spits out "su: Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info" I noticed everytime I try this a new line appears in /var/log/sssd/sssd_nss.log: (Thu May 23 12:02:14 2019) [sssd[nss]] [id_callback] (0x0010): The Monitor returned an error [org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply] if I try a wrong password I immediately get an authentication failure. Any ideas on what I could try to fix this? Thanks.
